I mean really?
Yes, totally awesome things, this is a blog that you will want to read everyday.
Truly amazing, tiny little moments that normally would pass us by in the blink of a eye. This blogger is amazing, even awesome in how he can transform the everyday events of our lives, into memorable “oh my moments.”
Taking a view that life, the news, and the world, are already too full of bad things, he instead dwells on those fine details like a spider web backlit by sunlight.
You will love your daily dose of this blogger.
Here are a few of my “awesome things” below, and I am encouraging you to share some with the rest of us in your comments.
First: you blog readers, you honestly have no idea how much your comments, and your reading of my blog mean to me.
A email with good news from a long time no hear from friend. Nothing like staying in touch again.
Finding extra money in your wallet, when you didn’t have enough to begin with.
A whiff of fragrant blooms on a sunny day. Lilac’s, or maybe roses, or even Lily of the Valley. Scented treasures.
Coming across a totally new pair of gardening gloves from the season before. Never worn, and just for you.
Finding out that a friend has secured a good job, after a stint of unemployment. Great news.
Bootsie coming through the garden gate, with more then just food on his mind. A kitty cuddle.
Let us know what your “awesome things” are.

awaking to birds singing...watching my girlies while they sleep...seeing my sister's smile.

Getting a warm, loving hug from my girls when they come home every day. See the smile on the Carpenters face when he's home in the evening, waking up in the morning to the blackbirds song outside my bedroom window, see the first green sprouts comming up from the ground in spring... I can make the list very long i think "smiling" It's great to be alive!
ReplyDeleteSuperbly optimistic shots.
ReplyDeleteAwesome things? My kids saying they love me, the unfettered joy of a happy dog, a good night's sleep, the beauty of a misty early morning...
Oh your Ginko and web photo is awesome!
ReplyDeleteNothing better than a big slurpy kiss from our dog Chance!
Holding hands with the best friend I married years ago:)
I have to remind myself how wonderful it is to hold hands with my little girls. Soon they'll be too old to want to, so I have to enjoy their soft, sweet hands now.
ReplyDeletematt loves that site!!
ReplyDeletemy awesome things....hearing the kids playing at the daycare down the street every day.
snuggling with matt and jack.
coffee in the mornings while jack plays
oh man..seriously i could go on and on and on...
Being healthy enough to walk up and down the 1001 Steps in Ocean Park. Feeling cozy inside with a good book on a blustery day. Getting wet from a warm spring rain.
ReplyDeleteLove your spider web photo... beautiful!
ReplyDeletehearing the birds out here in the country, such a beautiful symphony along with the frogs... last evening's walk around the pond, hearing and finally identifying the juvenile black-crowned night heron, by his call and his appearance in a tree...saving a baby bird twice, putting him back in his nest (although the 3rd time one of our cats got him which made me sad)...taking our dogs for walks around the property, with the cats and sometimes even the horses following me so I feel like the Pied Piper... just being alive and smelling the roses every single day. :-)
The awesome things that is happening to me everyday is being with my family, living a happy and contented life and being alive itself. What is there to ask for.
